Is it possible to mute someone on forum like in game?

I know in the game if I am tired of someone I can use the /mute option. Is there a way to block or ignore or mute one person like that on the forum? So that their comments don't put things on the front page for me and I never have to see their comments? For example, It gets tiring when someone new joins up and then goes rampaging off topic comments or just grave-digging for the fun of it. I don't know if it's possible but I would love to be able to just "mute" one person. I have looked through all my settings and options but I don't see a setting for it.
